[quote=@Diggerton] It's not uncommon for people from a certain culture to go against its values; take NEETs in Japan which come from a very hardworking culture or people raised in highly religious communities and become atheists. It's definitely not crazy for someone to go against cultural values. [/quote] It is for them to go against [i]every[/i] bit of a culture and get an intense hatred of the entire thing. ... and NEET is an English acronym. I assume you mean hikikomori, which isn't a relevant example at all.
